Right click your desktop, "screen resolution"

select the screen you're trying to change

hit advanced settings

you should have a new box pop up,

under monitor there should be a drop down with all the screen refresh rates you can choose.

(for windows 7)

for win 10.

I think you want one on 60 and 1 on 59 and that fixes some nvidia issues.

.. you can only change it if your monitor supports anything other than 60 hz which most monitors under $200 don't do

seeing as he has laptop resolution on the monitor i would think thats the case

If you cant change your refresh rate do you happen to know what type of DVI cable you're using?

or just go to control panel for the old interface. A nifty trick.

Also, you might try to set-up just one monitor and see if that runs correctly, then try adding the other one. That might give us some clues.

I was going to suggest using both monitors in DVI if it's possible.

Min Specs

Windows Vista or better, 64 bit
Core 2 Duo 2.4GHz or Athlon X2 2.7GHz
4 GB RAM
DirectX 10 or 11 compatible card, ATI Radeon 3870 or higher, NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT or higher with 512MB graphics memory, Intel HD Graphics 2500 or higher

System

Intel i7 4500 @ 1.8 GHz 2.4 GHz, 8GB RAM with Windows 7

Video settings and in-game benchmarking

Image

It was working just fine about a month and a half ago, getting about 30 FPS which is really all I expected from integrated graphics. Booted it up a couple weeks ago and the framerate is down to 6. Every other game I run is still operating smoothly.

Uninstalled it, reinstalled it, no such luck.
Drivers are up to date.

No help in their support forums.

Anyone got any ideas?
